Sure, but depending on the majors, it could take you over 5 years to get it done.

Yes, but like I said, given the requirements of each school, it will take you at least 5 years to graduate.

Does having one major and one minor usually take over the 4 years, Alexandre?

It depends on AP credits-TAKE YOUR AP TESTS!!!!!! Some people have enough to pull off a double major in 3 years, but if you come in with very few credits, it takes around 4 years to graduate with a major and minor. I came in with about 28 credits, and I will be able to accomplish a double major in English and Biology with a minor in German in four years.

It also depends on whether the two majors (or major/minor) are from the same program. One annother expect to double major in Music or Engineering or Architecture or Business and an LSA discipline in 4 years.
